Sunshade System

ABSTRACT

A sunshade system for providing shade around a user&#39;s head includes a cap that may be worn thereby facilitating the cap to provide shade. A curtain is removably coupled to the cap and the curtain provides shade.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE Field of the Disclosure

The disclosure relates to sunshade devices and more particularly pertains to a new sunshade device for providing shade around a user's head.

SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a cap that may be worn thereby facilitating the cap to provide shade. A curtain is removably coupled to the cap and the curtain provides shade.

There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.

The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The disclosure will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:

FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a sunshade system according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

FIG. 2 is a top view of an embodiment of the disclosure.

FIG. 3 is a left side view of an embodiment of the disclosure.

FIG. 4 is a back view of an embodiment of the disclosure.

FIG. 5 is a perspective in-use view of an embodiment of the disclosure.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, a new sunshade device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.

As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 5, the sunshade system 10 generally comprises a cap 12 that may be worn thereby facilitating the cap 12 to provide shade. The cap 12 has a dome 14 and a bill 16. The bill 16 extends forwardly from the dome 14 and the bill 16 provides shade. The dome 14 is worn on a head 18 of a user 20 thereby facilitating the bill 16 to shade a face 22 of the user 20. The dome 14 has an inner surface 24, a back side 26 and a bottom edge 28. The cap 12 may comprise a baseball cap or the like.

A curtain 30 is removably coupled to the cap 12 and the curtain 30 provides shade. The curtain 30 has a first surface 32, a top edge 34 and a pair of lateral edges 36. The curtain 30 has a pair of sleeves 38 and each of the sleeves 38 is aligned with an associated one of the lateral edges 36. Each of the sleeves 38 extends downwardly from the top edge 34.

A pair of strings 40 is provided and each of the strings 40 extends outwardly from an associated one of the sleeves 38. Each of the strings 38 has a distal end 42 with respect to the associated sleeve 38. A slide 44 is provided and each of the strings 40 extends through the sleeve 38. The slide 44 is slidably coupled to the strings 40 and the slide 44 is manipulated to selectively tighten the strings 40 around the user's head 18.

A first coupler 46 is coupled to the inner surface 24 of the dome 14. The first coupler 46 is positioned proximate the bottom edge 28. A second coupler 48 is coupled to the first surface 32 of the curtain 30 and the second coupler 48 is positioned proximate the top edge 34. The second coupler 48 is complementary to the first coupler 46 such that the curtain 30 extends downwardly from the back side 26 of the cap 12. The curtain 30 extends between opposite sides of the bill 16. Thus, the curtain 30 shades a back of the user's neck 52 and each of the user's cheeks 54. Each of the first coupler 46 and the second coupler 48 may comprise hook and loop fasteners or the like.

In use, the cap 12 is worn. The second coupler 48 is coupled to the first coupler 46 and the curtain 30 is positioned to extend downwardly along the back of the user's neck 52. The slide is manipulated to tighten the strings 40 around the user's head 18. The cap 12 may be worn with the curtain 30 or without the curtain 30.

With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, system and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.

Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements. 

1. A sunshade system comprising: a cap being configured to be worn thereby facilitating said cap to provide shade said cap having a dome having an inner surface and a bottom edge; a first coupler being coupled to said inner surface of said dome, said first coupler being positioned proximate said bottom edge; a curtain being removably coupled to said cap wherein said curtain is configured to provide shade, said curtain having a first surface, a top edge and a pair of lateral edges; and a second coupler being coupled to said first surface of said curtain, said second coupler being positioned proximate said top edge, said second coupler being complementary to said first coupler such that said curtain extends downwardly from said back side of said cap wherein said curtain is configured to shade a back of the user's neck and each of the user's cheeks.
 2. The system according to claim 1, wherein said cap has a bill, said bill extending forwardly from said dome wherein said bill is configured to provide shade, said dome being configured to be worn on a head of a user thereby facilitating said bill to shade a face of the user.
